"The Perfect 10" Stillz Copper Still review/Unboxing 

Awsome i love the stillz stills i have they have been put through the ringer and are still perfect dont have a single complaint...Shine On

😂 We all start out in the same place the more you make and taste it will grow on you over time and you will be able to pick out every flavor profile and what tasted good and what tasted bad

I talk about this a lot in my videos as I'm running I don't trust the flame thing or none of that when I run 20 gallons of mash depending on what's in it and the ABV I pull 2-3 quarts of heads off and I never collect tails I don't use them for anything so I don't waist the propane to run them off but I never give a set amount I believe that is not correct at all it changes so much from run to run depending on many factors is it fruit or grain mash did you use sugar what's your ABV of the mash etc its one of them things it takes time to learn but I always go by taste, touch and smell also you can dilute 50/50 with water as you make cuts to make it easier to taste the difference if that helps over time you will be able to see the difference when your in your heads it will taste super harsh very fiery it will smell super volatile like paint thinner, acetone etc if you rub it on your hands it will feel like it evaporates really fast as you get into hearts it will be smoother on the palet taste sweeter and want be so fiery and hot also it want smell so harsh it want feel like it evaporates so quickly off your hands as you get to tails usually between 100-90 proof it will taste horrible and smell like wet cardboard or even wet dog you will definitely notice a change it will feel really oily on your hands sometimes you can even see the oil floating on top of the product over time you will learn this very well it took me awhile to learn it but you dont have to make cuts on the fly. You can always put a lid on it, number your jars and go back at it the next day or the day after that if you have to. You can also 50/50 dilute your spirit with water to really open it up and get a better sense of what it tastes or what it smells like. Just do the best you can. Do you have any further questions? You can message me on the website? Redshineshack.com I get a direct message from that to my email? Hope this helps..Shine On

@@TheShineshack Your awesome Red! this is some great advice. Can't wait to get my batches up and running. Ill keep you posted on my results and ill reach out for any other questions. Your awesome! Shine on sir

I sure am I will be making plenty soon it's been super hot here in NC I have been waiting on it to cool down as I do everything outside in a building with no AC I will have plenty of videos this fall first being peach brandy 😁

I don't with grains I just let it roll without doing anything I only knocked the cap down once a day if I'm doing a brandy or fruit-based Mash

Absolutely it works very well I love the compact size as I don't have a lot of space

Thanks I appreciate your support it really all depends on a bunch of variables the ABV of your mash and how you make your cuts but usually anywhere from 1/2 - 1 gallon of good hearts

@@TheShineshack Thank you for the reply bro. Keep up the great work. Shine on!

I haven't heard of anything like that to my current knowledge. Distilling for personal use to drink. It is illegal on the federal level. There are some states that are legalizing it though. I believe Virginia is one of them, but on the federal level it's still illegal unless you get a fuel alcohol permit, but you still have to denature it to where you can't drink it but what they don't know won't hurt them right 😂 I think all that's crazy. It should be legal if you can make beer and wine. Why can't we turn that beer and wine into shine? But anyway I do have a 30 gallon still that's about the biggest I would go your return off of that. On average it is about 3 gallons of high proof, sometimes 3 1/2 of good clean alcohol. After cuts By the time you proof that down to about 100 or 110 proof you're at about 4 1/2 -5 gallons. I personally wouldn't go any bigger than that. It cost more money to make that Mash more money to run your stilll, more money on ingredients and sugar and fruit and grain I would even consider running a 50 gallon still on occasion but you got to keep in mind the amount of money it's going to take to make your mashes and stuff also depends on are you filling a barrel or have the means to consume the larger amount

@@TheShineshack take a look at the link I sent you. Back in July the courts ruled the ban on home distilling was unconstitutional

I see now the picture has a thumper without the fruit port.

Looking at the details it comes with the fruit port & ball valve Great Price!

Me to these are the only stills I use I love them I have always had Awesome experiences myself...There is a link in the description that will take you straight to the website

It comes with a fruit port I know that for sure it's probably just a picture he had I know I got the first one of The perfect 10 it also comes with the ball valve drain In the pot

It definitely is a really sweet price

Lead free brass

Hope you do bud you will love it 😁

Yeah I do to I'll never buy a still from anyone else but yeah I know what you mean

???

Thank you...It's supposed to be like that 😆 it's not a real flag it's a banner that hangs vertical

Another Basher! You're not very smart are you. My Track Record is impeccable! I have tens of thousands of customers that would disagree with you. Did you watch the video at all? Did you listen to Red?

Ha! Your not very bright are you.

Everyone has an opinion and I respect that But I have personally delt with Stillz for quite sometime now and never have had any issues at all and I know many many people who have had the same experience with with stillz and love their products here at the shine shack we only support businesses that are tried and Tru and we trust and stillz is definitely at the top of that list and also I am not paid to say anything about any products I do to help people improve their craft..Shine

@@TheShineshack I've know several over the past 8yrs his reputation is not good

@@stevenstillz2522 you also have those that would disagree, hence why you said another.nobody is perfect. And it shows how you respond to criticism with degrading remarks to others opinions. Good example of what somebody can expect for customer service.
